A little off cancer topic but I needed an outlet.
So today we had court over a shared parenting agreement with DH ex. Given that we found out he has cancer where he wanted 50/50 custody he no longer wanted to waste time fighting in court and just wanted to settle on the standard order with his minimum normal child support payments.
Child support (and ex) wanted to double his payment to 140 a week! With everything we are facing between bills and doctors etc (you know the drill) he just wanted her to drop everything and keep things as they are. Her mom passed of cancer when she was 11 and their son is 10 this year so it strikes a nerve only she can actually relate to, they had talked about it she cried said she'd think about it. Turns out SHE said we are fighting the agency and not her that she can't stop it anymore. But today at the trial our lawyer informed us she IS still fighting for more money.
I am disgusted at the cruel dishonesty and sheer greed of what's going on with these fake people (ex and her husband) who sat by us before it started displaying concern, memories of her mother going through the motions for years and (dumb) advice. Well guess where they didnt sit when it was over....
Thoughts?
